This Week In Unnecessary Censorship (VIDEO)

Jimmy Kimmel is no fan of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the regulatory body in charge of policing the airwaves. So each week he does a segment called "This Week In Unnecessary Censorship," that takes normal every day language and makes it seems lewd by bleeping out words or phrases. As a result everything from "Sesame Street," to "Mr. Rogers" comes out dirty...and hilarious.

This week, Jimmy looked at bestiality with emus, Swine Flu coverage, and "American Idol"'s crude goodbye. It's all pretty disturbing for a Saturday morning.

I would hope that HP take note of this headline and do heed the words UNNECESSARY CENSORSHIP.

This happens a lot on this website when posting comments.

Amazing....I always wondered how it feels to "bleep" an Emu?

And I think if someone holds it down I could totally "bleep" it.

My mind goes to work immediately to fill in the blnks.

This is why the religious right is so screwed up.

censorship is wrong. I do not need anyone telling me what I need to or not need to hear.

i'm glad it's not just me!

I think I get censored and blocked sometimes because I am a pro life evangelical Christian....also very left wing, anti death penalty, disgusted by torture, think McCain sucked and voted for Obama. I feel like sometimes my religious leftiness is not appreciated. So much easier to bash us and pretend we are all yahoos like Palin. Is that my imagination?

Getting censored is definitely not your imagination. Your religion, on the other hand...

I don't know and can't say why yours are deep-sixed, but I'm a pro-choice agnostic, and how some of the things that I post get censored are beyond my ken. I have no idea how they work it on here on Huffpo, but I don't see any kind of a pattern or logic.
